--- Comment #3 from Chris Rebert <webkit at chrisrebert.com> ---
Android Chrome already made the behavior change and blazed the trail here:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=175502

They tracked broken sites in https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=444581 (and its dupes).
They communicated with several sites and got some to fix their CSS.

In comments 24-25 & 28, they acknowledge some breakage, but don't think there's enough of it to justify switching back:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=444581#c24
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=444581#c28

I couldn't find any signs of any subsequent revert.

----

If WebKit were to disagree with Chrome's analysis and fear too much breakage,
what would be the path forward?
A new "yes, I really truly want 'hidden' here!" value for the CSS 'overflow' property?
